Stainless-Steel 1/4-20 Camera Screw
This 1/4-20 stainless-steel screw replaces the standard tripod socket on DSLR or SLR cameras and adds a built-in lanyard attachment point. The one-piece design includes an anti-skid rubber pad and a 3.9 mm hex socket for secure installation. Photographers can thread an existing neck strap directly through the screw without modifying the strap or the camera body.
Limited to 1/4-20 Tripod Threads
The screw only fits devices that provide a standard 1/4-20 female thread on the base plate. Cameras with proprietary mounting systems, recessed sockets deeper than the 18.7 mm total length, or smaller thread pitches cannot accept this adapter. The 14 mm outer diameter also requires sufficient clearance around the tripod hole so the rubber pad seats flush.
Upgrade from Split-Ring or Loose Strap Loops
The screw replaces separate split rings, quick-release plates or makeshift loops that can twist, scratch the base or come loose during use. The integrated hex socket lets the user tighten the connection firmly, eliminating the play common with hand-tightened strap lugs. The jump is worthwhile when a photographer wants a single, low-profile anchor that stays aligned with the camera base and supports the full weight of the rig.

Questions about this item
Does the 14 mm diameter fit my camera base plate?
The screw has a 14 mm outer diameter and a standard 1/4-20 thread, matching most DSLR and SLR tripod sockets.
What does the 18.7 mm length mean when installed?
Total length is 18.7 mm, so the screw protrudes that far from the camera base, leaving room for a strap loop or quick-release ring.
Is the 3.9 mm hex socket compatible with my tools?
A 3.9 mm hex key fits the socket, allowing secure tightening without a separate screwdriver slot.
